When Lt reinforce nearby dungeons, do their power card (eg, Doom! in the case of Alric) count in for the max number of power cards to be played for that campaign level? i.e. in Copper, can I play 2 more power cards to Alric's Doom! card (since my max for copper level is 2 power cards)Thanks

Okay. Then we've been playing that one wrong. I've been spending some time perusing the rulebook, and can't find anything that actually says you break the limit with it. Only that you get to bring it in for free.

Before play begins in the dungeon, theoverlord looks through his Overlord deck and places the cardslisted beneath the portraits on the fortifying lieutenants’ cardsinto play for free. Furthermore, these cards do not count againstthe number of Power cards in play (see “Advanged CampaignStages” on page 9).

Okay, there's your answer. I knew where LTts were discussed in the manual, so I looked at page 16 before that one. You'd think they'd cover that better in the LT Summary box (it only takes five words more to say that) as well as under Dungeons ... but I digress.

Good question, though. I've never really had to play more than two Power cards at this point, and neither of them went over the level cap for Power cards. I would probably have asked myself that question in a few more weeks in-game time, though.

All FFG games suffer the same issue - they hardly ever repeat rules. The reason this is good is that it reinforces the rule by repeating it. I would be nice to see a rule repeated when it is relevent. However FFG has a good reason for not doing this and that is the size of the rulebook needs to be manageable and cost effective. It is expensive to print rulebooks. I know, I've done it.

Matter of not seeing the wood because of all the trees I guess. I mean the headline of that section would make it really easy to find the answer. Its not like the rulebook is particularly well written, but that specific question is answered very clearly and is easily found IMHO. In theory ;-)
